The coat complex COPII forms vesicles at the endoplasmic reticulum to transport a variety of cargo proteins to the Golgi structure. Recent biochemical and structural studies reveal the molecular mechanism of cargo protein recognition by COPII components. Furthermore, there are at least two distinct ER-to-Golgi transport carrier structures carrying different cargo proteins in yeast and mammalian...

Cargo terminals are the gateways for entrance of commodities into the transportation network. Therefore, locating them in optimal location could have a major impact on the cost effectiveness and efficiency of transport, traffic safety and reduction in environmental pollutions. Due to the presence of a large number of parameters involved and the existing uncertainties, decision making in this fi...

Much effort has been devoted to the study of swarming and collective navigation of micro-organisms, insects, fish, birds and other organisms, as well as multi-agent simulations and to the study of real robots. It is well known that insect swarms can carry cargo. The studies here are motivated by a less well-known phenomenon: cargo transport by bacteria swarms. We begin with a concise review of ...

I summarize recent experimental results on B to charmonium decays. Decays of B meson to final states that include charmonium states play an important role in the study of CP violation at B-factories. The decay modes BCP → J/ψKS, ψ(2S)KS, χc1KS, ηcKS, J/ψKL and J/ψK (K → KSπ ) have been used for sin2φ1 measurements [1] [2] [3] [4] [5]. These two-body decay modes are dominated by the color suppre...
